I can't say this out loud.
You probably understand. Or maybe you don't, after all. Either way, it is jumping around inside me and if I don't let it out soon all my carbonation will fizz up and run over the side of my glass and I don't want to waste all that sweetness. / I want to kiss you underwater. / I want that kiss to be the only thing keeping us alive. Down there we are foreigners, aliens. Grasping, I want to feel your flesh in stark contrast to the smooth wetness all around me, like a secret.

When The Rabbit Met The Cheetah
One day a rabbit was jumping and skipping and running and flipping, / which caught the eye of a beautiful cheetah. The cheetah, interested in what she was seeing, strolled over. / The rabbit, so thrilled to have an audience, tried his best to jump higher run faster and move with such fluidity. All the rabbit ever wanted to do was impress. As the rabbit and cheetah grew closer, the rabbit began to notice that the cheetah could jump higher, run faster and do so with such elegance. This made the rabbit thrilled with joy, yet slightly embarrassed of his attempt to impress the humble cheetah. Despite the talent of the cheetah, she continued to lay there and watch with such flare in her eyes. Though the rabbit never understood why the cheetah showed such interest, he was quite thankful for her.

Cool Cats
Saturday night, I’m getting crazy as usual, / taking pictures of my cats because they just look so beautiful. / Yea, some people go out, but I’ve got so much to do,
